To bring you back up after that last post, here is more recently unearthed hotness. Classic house, and from New Years 1993 no less. I love this era of house, and I'm happy to have found this tape. I'm also going to start scanning the actual tapes this stuff comes off of, just because it's funny to see them these days. [EDIT: I went back and scanned in some more tapes, so if you are into the whole historical thing, flip back through the posts]

Reggie Reg, Mike Crosby 92 Q circa summer 1997
So after a little apartment rearranging, a box of tapes re-surfaced. Most stuff I have already encoded (or quickly put back) but I started listening to some unlabled tapes. This particluar one is a pretty good mix, and it has some really funny shout-outs and commercials (don't worry I trimmed out the boring ones). Keep your ears out for the no longer existing 'El Dorado Gentlemans Club' spot - and 'double-jointed' wednesdays!

New mix~actually made??!: 'Progressive'/Industrial circa 1990ish club nights
Shop Gentei party yesterday was hott - and it was mayhem til' they kicked us out at 2 - Scottie B rocked the place with his closing set. Haven't seen him DJ in a while, and it was pretty much perfectly selected and played. Club, to 80's, to a few house tracks on the ends. It's not always easy to keep the crowd that into it at 1:30am on a Sunday!
Gentei has some hot items in the shop for this fall - the selection of brands is crazy, and a lot of that stuff you won't find anywhere else in the states - including NYC. Tokyo style retail straight up, in Baltimore: super clean, and perfectly displayed. I've been to a lot of shops, in a lot of places, and this is one of the best out there...Has to be said!
I also decided to throw together a quick tape, really cuz I want to listen to these tracks on the ipod this week. I pretty much just went for it, so don't mind a few stray beats. Since I played Ministry's 'Halloween' in the set the other night, here are some other tracks to take you back to the days of Playschool (above 'The Rage' metal bar downtown on Calvert St), Meltdown, and the the all ages Sunday 'Progressive' nights in 90-92. They also did this at O'dells, but I don't remember what night. O'dells was the shit, too bad I couldn't get there too much before it closed...

Flyers
Since the Gentei 'Meltdown' is at the classic Baltimore spot Orpheus, I dug up some old flyers to do a little reminiscing. These were some seriously good times 1991+ , and I am happy I got to experience it. I have a bunch of things scanned, and I'll post them up here.
Citrus Club, November 1992, Club Orpheus, Baltimore
This is the flyer for one of the first Citrus Club parties from November 1992, and the coveted membership card to get you in for free. This was thrown by Scott Henry every Friday.
Fever, November 1992, Club Paradox, Baltimore
This is the flyer (for the party) that put Baltimore on the map. Thrown by Charles Fields (DJ Feelgood, pre- DJ) and Scott Henry it was THE place to be every other Thursday. Paradox, actually, was the place to be almost every weekend night: Fever on Thursdays, KW Griff and Rod Braxton club nights on Friday, and Deep House on Saturday.

V103 Frank Ski 'The Thunderstorm' Tape 3
Another in the series, with some good variety in tracks, and a couple plays of Doo Doo for consistency. I have one more of these I want to post up, and then I'll throw up some real seriousness. ;)
